Rainforests

Rainforests can be found in South America, Africa and Asia.


There live tribes of indigenous people in wooden huts. They eat vegetables, meat, fish and fruit such as manioc, bananas, sweet potatoes, pineapples, mangoes, beans and pigs.

In the rainforest also live jaguars, alligators, frogs, snakes, parrots, baby birds, toucans and sloths.

To spend time, the tribes hunt, fish, build houses or boats, plant the food and protect the houses from the animals.

We need to protect the rainforests because they are a part of our world and they help us to breathe. The rainforests are extremely important because they also provide most of our medicines from some rainforest plants.
